If you have a hair dryer use it to speed up the curing. An get the tanks/cages temps where you need them for the Boa. That may help remove the smell.

If you put the bead on too thick, curing time takes longer. So wait or take it out an use a smaller bead. Blend bead in with tool or finger.

Good luck!

Its ge silicon 1 so no additives. I covered all the seams and exposed wood with it so there is alot, i wasnt aware not to do that at the time. I only smell if if i close the cage and then open it. I think im gonna install the heat panel and let it run for a bit. See if that helps. I was so excited to put her in there now im bummed i may have messed it up after working so hard on it.
